There are a few highlights to get to from Europe in this week’s edition of the USMNT and USWNT abroad.
We begin this week with USMNT star Christian Pulisic who had a very good outing against Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday. The midfielder assisted on Jadon Sancho’s opening goal. It was one of Pulisic’s highlight reel players of the season for Dortmund.
In addition to his assist, Pulisic also drew a penalty but Dortmund was unable to convert. However, they cruised to victory winning 4-0 against Leverkusen.
